Sigh, its too bad that these systems will end up

there were a SCSI interface in it there would be people clamoring for it

to all offers to give you stuff, then start up a incoming stream and
produce a fairly complete/nice collection out of it.
Well, worst case scenario, I *do* have room for it, but the wife has been
clamoring for me to clean up the collection lately. It wont get stranded/
scrapped. I refuse to toss out hardware; I'll give it away before I"ll
toss it.
(well, I *did* toss a huge Sun 4/690MP VME backplane/chassis/blower assembly,
but only after a year of trying to find a home for it..)
During "big garbage pickup day" the neighbors had couches, beds, etc, out on
their front yards.. I had VME chassis. 8-)
